Resilient Cities 2012: Vital to include kids in climate planning

ICLEI – Resilient Cities 2012: Half of urban populations are made up of children, with around 175 million expected to soon be impacted by disasters every year. Antony Spalton from UNICEF talks to RTCC about why it is so important we learn to engage with the children in cities, not only to protect those most vulnerable to climate change but to take advantage of the unique perspective children have when it comes to disasters.
